The Royal Tea Room & Restaurant
A friend and I went there for afternoon tea today and I have to say we were more than pleased with our experience. The tea to choose from on the menu is a good, broad selection, but most of it seemed to be bag tea as oppposed to loose leaf tea, although the tea was high quality. The food included in the afternoon tea was all delicious and beautifully displayed. The atmosphere was very cozy and whimsical. For the afternoon tea, we got to pick our own tea cups and saucer from a beautiful display which I thought was a delightful touch. It would probably be best to call ahead to make a reservation for the afternoon tea since the last time my husband and I just walked in, I don't recall seeing it on the regular menu and I think you may have to make a reservation for it. Better safe than sorry. However, the Royal Tea Room is a great choice for a casual lunch as well if an afternoon tea isn't your thing. The Royal Tea Room has a lifelong customer in me.
Tearoom response:
Shannon, Thank you for the kind review. We appreciate your business, especially in these troubled economic times. I just want to clarify a couple of things for others who may read this. 98% of all tea served to the customers is in loose leaf form. We do, however sale a vairiety of loose tea and sacheted tea in our retail area. The tea service menu is located on the back side of our everyday menu, and yes, it is always wise to have reservations for the tea service. Although there have been times when business is slow that we can accomandate walk in customer requests for tea service. Once again, thank you for your visit and we look forward to the next one.
